A Head with Wings
"'Do you see something there? Why are you standing still all of a sudden?' With those words begin Anouk Kruithof's trip into the Little Brown rabbit hole. Using hand-made montages of photographs she took in Belize, Mexico, Egypt, Morocco and Berlin, Kruithof spins a hallucinatory yarn of anxiety and desire." --Publisher description.
Off with Her Head!
Explores the theme that women are objectified as sexual and reproductive bodies by symbolic beheading in myths and by such practices as veiling, head coverings, and cosmetic highlighting. Shows how women's heads link them to speech, identity, and mind, all characteristics classically reserved for men, and how beheading women reduces them to mute and anonymous flesh. Most of the examples are drawn from Oriental, classical Greek and Roman, and early Christian contexts, but some modern cases are also examined. The seven essays were presented at a panel of the American Academy of Religion, date and place not noted. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
The Man With The Tiny Head
‘The Man’ and his associates have no morals. White-slaving, blackmail, terrorism, torture and mini-battles on the high seas are all fair game. Against them is Lady Jennifer Norrington and her team. The storyline is both exciting and realistic, with sub-plots adding tension and originality. Not one to be missed by adherents of the thriller genre!
